	Hi guys, I have a cd-r and linux, so I should be able to do this easily.
How exactly do I go about burning 2.2.7-release?  I burned 2.2.5-release
with basically no problems, although I ran into this odd problem.

The packages dir has symlinks pointing back to itself, while not a problem
if I had a tarball, I tried
get <dirname>.tar.gz and .tar and .tgz to no avail, at least on the ftp3.
and ftp4.freebsd.org cd sites.


I could try ftp.cdrom.com instead, since they most likely support it... 
Is there anyway through ftp for me to download these symlinks?  (the actual
symlink, not the dest of the symlink)  And on top of that... the packages
of 2.2.7 is ... well huge.  How do I go about spanning these two discs?  Do
i just cut anough cd with the proper dir structure of the freebsd CD but
only with the remaining packages?  Thanks a lot guys!
